Whyyyyy???!! (TMI)

I’ve had diarrhea for two days. I can’t stop... the knots in my stomach. Ughhhh... 😩 I’m drinking tons of water so I don’t get dehydrated but I’m worried about preterm labor because with my first two pregnancies, diarrhea came before baby. Anyone else going through this? I’m 29.4weeks.

Yeah. Doc told me it’s just normal for some people. Never happened before in my other pregnancies. Mine has slowed a bit to less urgent trips to the bathroom (mostly) but still the same consistency going on about 4 weeks now.

I have it also. It’s been 5 days so far but I have IBS and my dr thinks my pregnancy is flaring me up. I’ve had to take Imodium every day. She also suggested a probiotic or eating yogurt to help balance my digestive system.

Your newborn

Because he was curled up inside your uterus until recently, your newborn baby will probably look scrunched up for a while, with his arms and legs not fully extended. He may even appear bowlegged.

Your 1-week-old

Your baby's eyesight is still pretty fuzzy. Babies are born nearsighted and can see things best when they're about 8 to 15 inches away, so she can see your face clearly only when you're holding her close.

Your 2-week-old

Your baby probably loves to be held, caressed, kissed, stroked, massaged, and carried. He may even make an "ah" sound when he hears your voice or sees your face, and he'll be eager to find you in a crowd.
